Chocolate Chip Cranberry Scones Recipes

CRANBERRY CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400˚F.
• In a small bowl, combine chopped cranberries and brown sugar. Set aside.
• In a large bowl combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well with a whisk.
• Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter. Continue until the butter is nearly incorporated and the mixture is crumbly - the largest crumbs should be the size of small peas.
• Add sugared cranberries and chocolate. Stir to combine.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together egg and cream. Add egg mixture to flour mixture and stir lightly with a spatula to combine - do not over mix.
• Place on a lightly floured work surface and divide into two equal balls. Gently flatten each to form a disc approximately 1 inch thick. Cut each disc into 8 wedges, similar to cutting a pizza.
• Transfer wedges to two baking sheets lined with parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and remaining sugar. Brush tops with egg white and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Cool completely on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
